Fellow Defectives,
Thanks for the advice on whether to leave the O.D. on the
tranny for engine extraction. This past weekend we did the
deed... Both engine and trans came out slick as you please,
with the help of some friends, and excellent hoist (with
tilting rig) and a bit of therapeutic ethanol... I'm happy
to report there were no pinched fingers, or scratched paint
in the bargain.
Of course, now the fun begins... once I get the grime of the
ages off the "boat anchor".
I've found a machine shop in Streamwood IL who specializes in
racing prep that will lighten the flywheel and balance both it
the crank when I'm ready (rather my personal exchequer is ready)
